Three patients who had been treated with transscleral cryotherapy for retinal breaks and associated retinal detachment developed de novo retinal breaks and/or retinal thinning at the site of cryotherapy in the early postoperative period. Additional surgical interventions were required because retinal detachment had extended or remained unchanged postoperatively. We think that this may be due to excessive cryotherapy and is an early postoperative complication transscleral cryotherapy that to our knowledge has not previously been reported. This would suggest that when performing cryotherapy for retinal breaks and associated retinal detachment, care should be taken not to treat excessively.
